Dear Everyone, I am currently in debate with Google Adwords about the clicks I am being charged for. The issue is simple. I have specific landing pages for my Adwords adverts. My server logs show the landing page served 125 times, Adwords reports 360 'clicks'. There should be a 1-to-1 mapping as far as I am concerned. If the landing page was not requested, then the click, valid or not never reached the server. Could a cacheing proxy servers be causing the difference? I repeated the experiment with a new site. 7 clicks, but only two reported HTTP GET requests to the landing page. Does anyone have a similar experience? or explanation? I have searched for answers, but I only get Adwords vs Analytics answers, and i don't use AWstats. I retrieve my logs via cpanel, if that is relevant. Any help gratefully received. Thanks Xavier
It will be very difficult to provide assistance without any form of hard data.
You'd need to look at real server logs - not something dished up by a crapanel.
